That was the direction I wanted to explore with this AI UGC concept.
I created a beauty creator-style video around a lip gloss, using AI-generated visuals and then bringing everything together through editing, product focused shots, close-ups, text animation, transitions, and a social-first CTA.
The idea was to make the product feel like part of a creator’s content rather than another overly polished commercial.
Tell me what you think... would you stop scrolling for this?

16:9 to 9:16 || Short-Form Video Editing & Motion Design
This editing test focused on transforming long-form footage into engaging vertical content while maintaining strong visual hierarchy and pacing.
I handled the edit, dynamic captions, motion graphics, sound effects, transitions, visual emphasis, and 16:9 → 9:16 reframing to create a platform-ready short-form piece.
The goal was to make the content feel native to short-form platforms while preserving the original message and strengthening viewer engagement.

Edited a high-retention short-form video featuring a talking-head/podcast style, with dynamic captions, relevant B-roll, smooth transitions, zoom effects, and engaging visual elements.
